[ Man Narrating ] Daka and his New Order conspirators...
have lost their secret and powerful radium gun.
As they attempt to recover it, Batman interferes.
[ Coughing ] What are you doing?
The acid bottles smashed. Watch that door. I'll cover the window from upstairs.
We've got to get her out of here.
Out the window. Go ahead. I'll follow you.
[ Bullet Ricochets ]
No one tried this door. Oh, I know it. They got away over the cable.
Well, Daka will be pleased when you report that to him.
I did my best. Anyway, I'm not afraid of him or any other squint-eye.
As soon as the gas clears, better get rid of that equipment in there.
Batman will probably tell the police about this place.
I think she'll be all right now.
If you need me, I'll be in the dispensary. Thank you, Doctor.
You're a stupid, bungling fool to let that girl escape.
As I explained, the Batman interfered. Silence!
I am sick and tired of that alibi.
The Batman is a rank amateur.
He cannot measure up to any one of you.
Get rid of him. That's easier said than done.
Silence!
Now, Mr. Warren, do you still refuse...
to become a member of the League of the New Order?
I do. Oh, that is too bad.
Then the responsibility is yours.
Take him to the laboratory.
Captain Jones, the door.
Resistance is useless, Warren.
I suggest that you adopt an attitude of fatalistic resignation.
You underestimate the American will to fight, Daka.
We fight best in the face of your so-called inevitable.
Oh, you do? Well, we shall see about that. Proceed, gentlemen.
Preston, the bell.
Stand back, gentlemen.
One more chance, Mr. Warren? No.
Oh, too bad. So sorry.
- [ Whirring ] - [ Clacking ]
[ Whirring ]
Uh-huh. That is all, gentlemen.
Martin Warren, stand up.
Walk forward.
Stop.
There, gentlemen, is what happens to the American will to fight.
Follow me, Warren.
I just heard the police raided the House of the Open Door.
But unfortunately they found nothing suspicious.
I didn't think they would.
Our only chance now is the ad we put in the papers.
You think it'll work? I hope so.
[ Man ] Follow the Cave of Horrors, my friends.
It's sensational! It's amazing! It's astounding!
Something that you'll never forget as long as you--
How are you, brother? Hey, you're not closing up for the night, are you?
No, sir, my friend, we never close. That's good.
That's all right. We stay open night and day for the duration, my friend.
We feel that it's our patriotic duty to show the public--
Okay. All right.
[ Buzzing ]
Good news, Chief. The head of Group 22 reports that the supply train...
is going south over the Shoreline at 10:00 p.m. tonight.
The Shoreline? Mm-hmm.
So good. No?
Now, that means it must pass over the Westgate Bridge.
So nice. Since we lack the radium gun which was inexcusably lost,
we must employ this to blow up the supply train.
Of course, it will not be as efficient, but-- [ Buzzing ]
[ Whirring ]
Listen to this, Chief.
"Found near Gotham City Foundation,
"odd device shaped like some strange gun.
"Owner may claim same by applying at Room 802, Godfrey Building,
or telephoning Rochester 1166." Very interesting.
I telephoned as soon as I read it and made an appointment.
Although the fella said he couldn't see me till 10:00 tonight.
Obviously the Batman is trying to set a trap for us.
We will catch him in his own net.
Since he expects us at 10:00, we will surprise him at 9:00,
obtain the gun, and then use it to blow up the train.
What train? There's no time to explain now.
Here. Put this map in your pocket. Brennan will explain later.
I won't miss out on this one. I wouldn't.
Pick up Brett and Stone to assist you.
I'd better take that along in case we don't get the gun.
Yes, and remember, if it is the Batman who has the gun,
he must be destroyed.
[ Bell Tolling ]
Make sure they haven't got a lookout posted.
I'll let you know when it's all clear.
Now, that's all right, Alfred, snap into it. They may be here anytime.
Oh. Oh, yeah. But it's only 9:00, sir.
I know, but they might be here ahead of time to catch us napping.
Get ready to do your stuff.
I'll be right outside to give you a hand in case of trouble.
We haven't got time to wait. We'll go in.
[ Ladder Clatters ]
[ Knocking ]
[ Clears Throat ] Come in.
How do you do? Did you have an ad in the lost and found column?
Y-Yes, sir. Well, I'm the owner of that article.
Oh, oh, you are, eh? Uh, a most unique object indeed.
Now, if you can describe it to me and are willing to pay a suitable reward--
We'll just skip the description and the reward.
Hand it over. Oh, oh, that's a pistol you're pointing at me, sir.
It sure is, buddy. I wish you wouldn't do that. It makes me very nervous.
You'll be more than nervous in a minute if you don't hand over that radium gun.
Uh, well, you see, it's-- it's like this.
I haven't it with me. Come in, boys.
Search the place.
Give me Scotland Yard.
No, no, okay, g-give me the police.
Oh, give me anything.
Please hurry. Yes, yes, I'm being murdered here.
[ Gun Clicking ]
Oh.
How many did I kill? Seven.
But there were only four of the ruffians.
You killed three of them twice.
Where are the bodies? We threw them out the window.
Why didn't you let me know they were coming?
I only saw one of them and I followed him.
It was a plan to draw me away from the entrance of the building. I fell for it.
Lucky you did, you saved my life on the roof.
Let's look for some identification.
Here's something.
A map of the Shoreline Railroad. That circle around the Westgate Bridge.
10:00 p.m. scribbled in the margin. What time is it?
9:34, sir. That gives us only 26 minutes to find out what they're up to.
What makes you so sure it means 10:00 p.m. tonight?
I'm not. But there's nothing like making certain.
[ Siren Wailing ]
We haven't time to explain to the police.
We'll have to leave by way of the roof.
The bridge is over that way. Turn off the road.
I don't see them. Well, they got quite a start on us.
I'll tell you where to turn off. Okay.
Now that the guards have been attended to, this shouldn't take long.
Why don't you give me a hand? Stone, you and Brett stay here and keep a lookout.
Okay, but hurry. That train's about due.
This is all right.
[ Whistle Blows ]
Say, I think I hear that train whistle.
It's just your imagination. My nerves are shot too.
[ Whistle Blows ]
Say, you did hear it. Let's get 'em outta there.
- That's her. - We got plenty of time.
Hurry up. Let's get out of here. It's coming!
You go ahead. I'll only be a minute. All right.
The Batman!
[ Train Whistle Blows ]
Get off the trestle. I've almost got it loose.
[ Train Whistle Blows ]
[ Narrator ] Is Daka throwing Martin Warren to his horrible pet alligators?
Will the Jap spies force Linda to give them the receipt... [ Screams ]
for the vital radium shipment they plan to steal?
Don't fail to see "Slaves of the Rising Sun,"
Chapter 4 of Batman at this theatre next week.
